Brixton Wednesdays on Wax: Human Eye & Ex-Cult

Brixton — Wed, 15 May 2013 23:48:16 +0000

This week our friends at Goner Records sent over some goods for us to share. Both of these albums had us jumping, here’s Human Eye’s brand new LP 4: Into Unkown along with the debut full-length from Southern hardcore/punkers Ex-Cult.

Human Eye – 4 Into Unkown

Headed up by frontman Timmy Vulgar (Clone Defects, Epileptix), Human Eye didn’t change up their space-fuzz-rock formula but definitely evolved their sound for 4: Into Unknown. Hailing from Detroit, you can find the Motor-City rock influences but just as soon as you do a ghastly distorted guitar or distinct alien-synth sound drags you into something that can only be described as unknown… All clever adjectives aside, these guys rock, click the players below and find out for yourself then go pick up a copy HERE.

“Gettin’ Mean”

“Outlaw Lone Wolf”

Ex-Cult – S/T

Memphis has been really bringing the heat in the last few years when it comes to churning out awesome punk/garage rock. Ex-Cult began playing in 2011 as Sex-Cult, but due to legal issues with another group switched to Ex-Cult. Playing local shows and parties, they made their way to SXSW last year and managed to garner the attention of San Fransicos’s Ty Segall, who agreed on producing their first record. Soon after, they set out to the West Coast and finished one hell of a debut. Pick up this album HERE and check to see if they’re stopping in your area anytime soon HERE.

“Knives On Both Sides”

“M.P.D.”
